In my town there are no shops available with drains in the floor. OK, one. A four bay ex-gas station on the main drag where I`m guessing the rent would be 5K per mo.
I`ve considered the various water berms that are available and have decided against something like that because I`d be sloshing around in the water all day.
So now I`m thinking two designs.
The first, and most expensive, would be to have welded up two, low (4" high or so) drive on racks approx. 36" wide each, by maybe 20` long. Maybe each rack would be in three 7` long sections, bolted together so they would be easier to move.
Then I thought, since there`s a local lumber mill, about asking them if they could saw down (and plane 2 sides would be great) - Rail Road ties. Those are cheap. Put a few of those side by side and twenty or so feet long, maybe top them with some sort of steel grate and fabricate a long low ramp ...
I`d build a water containment out of pond liner material (also cheap), enclose it using 2 x 4`s to catch most of the water and put in between or even under the ramps.
It`s been the major stumbling block in my finding a location and coming up with a solution.
Any feedback or other ideas greatly appreciated.
BTW - I`m scheduled for a week of training in Jan.
